FIFA has long been renowned for its anti-racism and anti-discrimination initiatives, both during tournaments and beyond. But the current Club World Cup stands out as a major exception.
Details: According to The Athletic, FIFA decided not to display any banners or videos addressing the fight against racism and discrimination, despite the fact that the relevant materials had already been prepared.
The reasons for abandoning such campaigns have not been officially stated. Some experts link this move to the current socio-political climate in the United States, where major organizations and corporations are gradually rolling back diversity, equity, and inclusion programs. FIFA maintains that the organization remains politically neutral, citing its statutes.
Reminder: Earlier, the sums spent by world football’s governing body on promoting the Club World Cup in the United States were disclosed.
